Cross Platform Rendering

We have a multi-GPU render farm that runs on Windows. My current workstation is also on Windows. We're considering transitioning my workstation to a brand new Mac Pro, but leaving the render farm on Windows. My question is, without running Parallels on Mac or setting up a Virtual Machine, can I render to our Windows-based render farm if I'm running Mac OS?

Hi frankjrmi,
no problem in working with Octane in a multi operating system environment, especially with net-render.
I work with both Mac and Win, mixed or not, every day

Thanks for the feedback. So, you don't need to boot your Mac to Windows to make it work?
